The Team Behind the Scenes
Katie Kory – Founder
After releasing a few trance tracks under the alias Tarvali, she discovered that music production wasn’t her true calling. However, her passion for the genre remains strong, and she continues to DJ regularly at local events across the United States.
The closure of Trance Podium left a noticeable void in the scene, creating a sense of fragmentation across local communities and making the discovery of new music more challenging. This gap sparked an idea: to build a platform that could reconnect the global trance community and streamline the discovery process.
From that vision, Hello Trance was born.
Tom Bradshaw – Co-Founder
Tom Bradshaw is an integral part of the team, bringing with him a wealth of knowledge and a keen understanding of the European trance scene. Based in the United Kingdom, Tom is a familiar presence at events across the country and Europe—even when he’s not on the lineup.
A true ambassador of the genre, Tom’s passion for trance runs deep. As a DJ, producer, radio presenter, and long-time clubber, his experience spans every corner of the scene. He has performed at some of the UK and Europe’s most respected trance events and brands, including Goodgreef, Hindsight, Trancelation, Journey, Delusion, and Elevation Audio, among others.
For over 12 years, Tom has hosted the renowned Killswitch Radio, which recently relaunched under the new name Infinity, continuing his dedication to showcasing the best in trance music. He’s also one of the co-hosts of our in-house podcast, bringing insightful commentary and a wealth of industry experience to the table.
In addition to his work behind the decks and the mic, Tom is a professional voice-over artist. His voice can be heard not only on his own shows but across a variety of other programs and platforms throughout the scene.
